Chapter 778: Ghost Image
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, let's go this way."
Pang Hai made a gesture of please and wanted Emperor Chu to go back to the palace, but Emperor Chu pushed away Pang Hai who was blocking him, kicked his feet, and Pang Hai screamed in pain, squatted down, and rubbed his knees with his hands.
The ministers got up and looked in the direction of the fire.
The sound of popping sounded, and the fireworks above the sky exploded, gorgeous and short-lived.
"Get out, bastard, you dare to stop the way of the Son of Heaven! Go, put out the fire! This, what's going on! Concubine Jing Lifei! ”
Emperor Chu was furious and roared in his mouth.
When Concubine Jing heard this, she quickly got up from the chair and knelt on the ground.
"Emperor Qi, concubines, concubines don't know what's going on, how can this fireworks suddenly explode if they are put in a good place."
Concubine Li explained, a little panicked.
Concubine Jing bowed her head and remained silent.
"Pang Hai, quickly order someone to put out the fire! You guys, you all go! All ministers have to go! ”
Emperor Chu pointed to the minister who was still seated, and shouted with a hideous face.
That place, that place is not far from the North Courtyard!
If something happened to the North Courtyard, his efforts would be in vain.
"Divine doctor, what about divine doctor?"
Emperor Chu turned his head and swept his eyes past everyone, but he didn't find Kunai's figure.
"Your Majesty, the divine doctor has just left, there seems to be something."
The maid of the first palace timidly stood up and bowed her head and said.
Emperor Chu's face sank, and he pulled his red sleeves and went to the place where the fire was burning, and the rest of the people followed when they saw Emperor Chu going.
Even the Emperor of Chu went to that place in person, and if they didn't go, it would definitely not be like that.
Xia Ruosheng and Chen Ye followed first, Xiao Yongde followed closely behind, and the other ministers also looked at it when they saw this.
Chu Yan went over with Yan Ruolin, and the Queen Mother also wanted to follow, but her body couldn't keep up, so she could only go back to the Longevity Hall to wait for news.
How could the palace suddenly catch fire for no apparent reason? And it's in the fireworks store.
"Queen."
The queen mother got up, put her hand on the palace maid's hand, glanced at the queen who was still standing beside her, and shouted softly.
"The concubine is here."
The queen bowed her head and responded lightly.
"I hope this has nothing to do with you."
"What does the fire in the fireworks library have to do with the concubines? Why did the Queen Mother think that it was a concubine who did it? ”
The queen asked rhetorically, looking at the queen mother innocently.
"The mourning family is just asking, if it weren't for you."
"Let's go, go back to the Hall of Longevity."
The Queen Mother said, walking in the direction of the Longevity Palace.
The queen looked at the back of the queen mother leaving, snorted coldly, and slowly walked in the direction of the fireworks storehouse.
Everyone went to see the excitement, and she couldn't be absent.
The flames were soaring, and the eunuchs and palace maids carried buckets of water and poured them into the fire, but it had no effect.
Bai Ling'er looked left and right, but Chu Yu was nowhere to be seen.
Although it is diarrhea, it has been too long.
The crowd around her almost pushed her outside.
The fire enveloped the whole palace, and Zrazra's voice rang out, crackling and crackling, and as soon as they approached, they felt hot, as if the fire was about to burn on them, and they were afraid to even get closer.
"Still stunned for what to do, the fire is almost gone."
Emperor Chu shouted, and the ministers did not move, some took off their clothes and threw themselves on the side, while others snatched the bucket from the eunuch's hand and poured water into the fire.
The fireworks above the sky were still crackling, and they would have looked good if they were usual, but now they just want to put out the fire as soon as possible.
If it continued to burn, the entire palace burned down.
The people around are busy, their steps are flustered,
By the time the fire had been extinguished, several hours had passed, and the palace where the fireworks had been stored was in ruins.
White smoke rises and the smell of burning enters the nose.
Everyone was so busy that even their faces were like flower-faced cats.
When they saw that the fire was gone, they sat down on the ground to rest, and they were too busy to have any strength.
"How can a good place catch fire!"
Emperor Chu asked around with red eyes, but no one could reply.
In order to fear that the fireworks will shine on the sun, so I deliberately chose a cool place to store, there has been nothing in the past few years, what happened today!
"Your Majesty, the minion... The minions don't know either. ”
The guards guarding the fireworks depot stood up tremblingly, bowing their heads and not daring to look at Emperor Chu, only to see the shoes.
"I don't know? I'm here for you to watch, not for you to play! ”
Emperor Chu lowered his head and kicked his feet, and the guards fell to the ground with a thud.
He covered his face with his hands, but he didn't dare to gnaw.
"Come on, pull it down, pull it down, cut it down, cut down all the people who are guarding the fireworks store today!"
Emperor Chu scolded loudly, and as soon as the words fell, someone grabbed the guard who had just been kicked and wanted to drag it down, but he stopped because of a sound.
"Wait."
"Your Majesty, today is the day of the birthday of the day, the day of the birthday of the day is a good day to bless the peace of the country of Chu, according to the concubines, it is not appropriate to kill, otherwise God will be angry."
The red sleeve stroked Emperor Chu's chest with his hand and smoothed his breath for him.
"Oh? What should I do according to Concubine Xing? ”
Emperor Chu lowered his head and asked with his red-sleeved hand.
The tone was full of pampering, and everyone was relieved to see that Emperor Chu was half angry, and they also admired Li Hongsleeve, who had just been promoted to a concubine.
"According to the concubine, it should be..."
The red-sleeved eyes rolled, and he paused in the middle of speaking.
"It should be to let these people go, punish them to repair the palace, and not be guilty until the palace is repaired, your majesty, the palace is now burned like this, it must be repaired, and then it will also require manpower and material resources, that is, why not let these people atone for their sins?"
Red Sleeves said, and the captured guards breathed a sigh of relief, as long as they could live, they would do whatever they wanted.
"Okay, then do as Concubine Ai says!"
"As for Concubine Jing and Concubine Li..."
Emperor Chu doted, but when it came to Concubine Jing and Concubine Li, his face changed greatly.
The two stood up and knelt in front of Emperor Chu.
"If such a mistake occurs on such a big festival as Tianshou Day, if it is discovered late or the fire cannot be extinguished, the entire palace will be reduced to ashes!"
"Although you have merit, you have also been fined, I will fine you for half a year's money, and as for repairing the palace, I will also leave it to you to deal with, Concubine Jing and Concubine Li, do you have any objections?"
Emperor Chu looked at the two of them, Concubine Li shook her head, and Concubine Jing accepted calmly: "Thank you, Lord Longen." ”
The two said in unison, and Emperor Chu snorted coldly.
A good birthday was ruined because of this incident, and all the good mood was gone.
The queen stood behind her and watched, her eyes falling on Red Sleeves.
This woman's origin is unknown, she thought that Concubine Jing and Concubine Li were found from outside the palace, but it seems that this is not the case, but it seems to have appeared out of thin air.
She is different from Emperor Chu, she has never believed that there are immortals in this world.
If she had, her Shuo'er would not have died.
The scavenger looked at Red Sleeves, who nodded and smiled as if sensing that someone was looking at her.
Seeing this, the scavengers looked away.
In the basement of the north courtyard, Kunai looked at the blood flowers in the sink.
"Dream hunting is missing!"
He faced this flower day and night, and he knew exactly how many petals there were, and then he found that one petal was missing.
"This, this..."
Xiao Yuanzi stammered, as if he could only read these words, looking nervous.
Ku Wu turned his head to look at Xiao Yuanzi, his face was terrifying, like a ghost with long teeth and a big mouth.
"Pull down the big fifty boards, if today's things happen in the future, you don't want to see tomorrow's sun."
The scavenger squatted down, pinched Xiao Yuanzi's chin with his hand, pinched Xiao Yuanzi and frowned in pain.
I wanted to beg for mercy but couldn't open my mouth, so I could only endure it.
"Yes, yes, thank you for the grace of the divine doctor not to kill, I swear that this kind of thing will never happen in the future!"
Xiao Yuanzi kowtowed violently, Kunai snorted, and turned to leave.
Xiao Yuanzi was still kneeling on the spot, knocking and not daring to get up.
There are only a few pieces of Dream Hunting, and each one is conceived with human blood, and one less piece is no different from one less for him.
However, the good thing about dreaming is that as long as he gets rid of the stem, he will die, so he doesn't dare to move easily, otherwise his life's hard work will be in vain.
So everything else was brought to the cold palace, but Dream Hunt was still here.
I didn't think that something would happen if I stayed here.
I knew that he wouldn't go to stay here on his birthday.
In a palace next to the fireworks storehouse, the fire was gradually extinguished.
It's just that the palace was burned to the ground, like a fireworks storehouse.
The palace connected to the fireworks was also destroyed.
This time the losses were not ordinary.
Chu Yun looked at Bai Ling'er, why didn't Chu Yu see anyone after going to the toilet for so long? And he should know that even the ground shook when something so big happened.
Bai Ling'er looked left and right, and turned his head to the ground of the thatched house.
Chu Xu looked at this piece of ruins, how could the fireworks library suddenly catch fire?
And no matter how much this fire burns, it is impossible to burn along with the surrounding palaces.
Chu Xu's eyes fell on the queen and he thought about it.
"Ahem."
Jiang Wutong smelled the air around him and felt bad, and coughed again and again.
Holding his hands on his chest, he coughed one after another.
Chu Yong looked at Jiang Wutong's appearance, hesitated, and finally reached out and patted her back for her.
"I'm fine."
Jiang Wutong said, Chu Yong's face darkened a little and stretched out his hand.
"Nothing? How can you be okay with your weak body, it smells smoky here, go back. ”
Chu Yong skimmed Jiang Wutong lightly, waving his hand in front of him.
Turning around and going in the direction of the outside of the palace, Jiang Wutong looked at the back of Chu Yong leaving, and stood in place stupidly.
Chu Yong saw that Jiang Wutong didn't keep up and stopped and looked back: "If you don't leave, are you reluctant to be here?" ”
As he spoke, Chu Yong walked up to Jiang Wutong and stretched out his hand to take Jiang Wutong's hand.
Jiang Wutong wanted to withdraw his hand like a frightened kitten, but was tightly dragged by Chu Yong, pulling him out of the palace.
Jiang Wutong's face was flushed, fortunately, it was dark at night that she couldn't see her face clearly, otherwise she would definitely be teased.
The heart was pounding as if it was when he first met Chu Yong a few years ago.
Outside the thatched house, it was silent and deserted.
"Lord Wang, Lord Wang."
Bai Ling'er shouted but no one responded.
Bai Ling'er stomped her feet and looked angry.
How could it be that the last thatched man disappeared!
"Where the hell is this going?"
Bai Ling'er muttered, her brows furrowed.
Inside the Hall of Longevity
The Queen Mother looked at the fierce and vicious ghost statue placed in front of the Buddha, closed her eyes and said softly: "Amitabha." ”
Then the palace handed the queen mother a stick of incense, and the queen mother inserted the incense in front of the Buddha statue.
"Bring this statue back, lest you frighten anyone."
The queen mother ordered, and the palace maids bowed their heads and said yes.
Then the two of them picked up the ghost statue and walked to the attic, removed the portrait hanging on the wall, and there was an empty wall behind the portrait, and the palace maids familiarly moved the ghost statue into the empty wall, and then hung the portrait.
